Hey, I know I'm a little late to the party here, but if you need any help with admin or hosting, I'm glad to be an understudy or switch in if someone else can't make it. (Unfortunately, I'm probably not savvy enough to do tech. ) I can scooch my sleep schedule around and I'll be there from early on the 9th until late on the 13th.
If people are still looking for shifts I would give up my Tuesday 9 PM-midnight admin slot. I've got a tech shift early the next morning and some occasional sleep is always nice.
Could be possible. I'll be doing an interview/commentary on the german restream after my run but before that block so there's a chance there's some minor overlap but I should be around then, although I might be a bit zombified.
Fair enough. Plus, if it is any trouble at all for you maybe Wyrm can pick it up instead.
If they can't take gyre's, I'm pretty sure I'll be in the room that whole time anyways (if I have the day right, that's during 2d zelda, yes?), so it wouldn't be a big deal to have admin duties as well.
Priority obviously goes to them, since they're low on shifts.
This time may be subject to change, so check this thread again before you depart, but the orientations for each role will be on the night of Saturday Jan 4 (tomorrow) as follows:
Admin: 10:00pm/22:00 EST Host: 10:20pm/22:20 EST Tech: 10:40pm/22:40 EST
Please show up in the marathon room at the time for each role you've signed up for, even if you don't currently have any shifts. If you won't be at the marathon yet on Saturday, that's fine, just find me when you do get there. It is necessary that you get an orientation before performing your role.
So, I'm really excited about my hosting during the DKC block on Wednesday (2-5 PM). However, I appear to have caught a cold recently that has ruined my voice. I'm still planning on attending and helping, and I believe my voice will recover by then, but it would probably be best if we had an alternate/contingency plan for my hosting timeslot, just in case. Is anyone willing to hop in that slot if I can't speak properly?
Sorry for the late notice, but I've been monitoring the situation on a day-to-day basis, and my voice is still pretty dead today. Hopefully with some vocal rest over the next few days, I can recover.
No one is speaking up about preferences for shifts, so I'm going to do it like this to try and make everyone's schedule work best:
LLCoolDave on gyre's admin shift, Tue 9pm-midnight EST (21-0) Wyrm on SMK's admin shift, Mon 9pm-midnight EST (21-0) TenShots as a backup for Forte/bassdeluxe27's host shift, Wed 2pm-5pm EST (14-17), because s/he doesn't have a shift yet. AmberWynne still unassigned because nothing needs filling yet after the 9th.
Yo, I'm pretty late but I meant to sign up for hosting instead of donation station (I made the common mistake and thought that donation station was reading donations). I don't mind my admin shifts though, thanks for allowing me to contribute to some of the work that's needed.
I'm really sorry about springing this on you last minute, but I'm not driving up there today (Saturday) like I initially planned. I'm not healthy enough to consider making the trip, but I'm hoping I'll recover in time to make it there a day or two (or three) late.
As it stands, though, it's probably going to be a good idea to make alternate plans for all of my shifts, and not just my hosting shift.
Once again, I'm really sorry about this. I hope I'll make it there soon.

I'm not super attached to my hosting spot, Monday 18:00-22:00, if you want to take that one over.

Me and Dgaul won't be there, just a pre-emptive heads up. He arrives at Union Station ~10 and I am picking him up.

I'm going to switch the host shift then unless Missy can't do that one. Missy, note that you have an admin shift at 6am the next day - will that work out alright for you?
And thanks for letting me know that you won't be around for the orientation. I am already planning a "culling" round on the 5th, tomorrow, where I check in with people who weren't able to make the orientation, and also start to find last-minute replacements for anyone who wasn't able to come to the marathon or didn't check in with me at all. Hopefully both groups are small.
Unfortunately I can't update the schedule right now, so if you're trying to verify it please take note that it is only current up to my post two prior to this one in the thread (starting "No one is speaking up.."). I'll post the updated one as soon as I can.
I decided last minute to come to the marathon for a few days, so if you end up with blank slots on Sunday and Monday I could likely fill them. I've used pretty much all aspects of the donation tracker before during Speedathon last year, so I should only need a quick refresher on the protocol.
@Kiyura: It looks like my flight will be getting there around 6:30 AM tomorrow morning so I'll miss the orientation but try to catch you in the morning.
